"You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you." ~ Ray Bradbury. I tend to agree with Mr. Bradbury, although my writings steer clear from dystopia, I am a fan of Batman and the young Bruce Wayne … throughout this blog (if you stay long enough) you’ll come to understand what this mortal thinks of the world around her … maybe you'll even agree.

THESE ARE A FEW OF MY MOST FAVORITE THINGS …

A Few of my Favorite Things …

(and no, The Sound of Music will not ever make my list)

FAMILY Enough said.

TOMATOES Anything and everything tomatoes. Love the big beefy ones, sliced think and sprinkled with sugar (yes, like Caroline Jaimeson) for breakfast … or broiled with mozzarella and basil … or fresh, plump and juicy and eaten like an apple.

HYDRANGEAS

White ones … and just about any white flowers for that matter. We have a hedge of hydrangeas in the front, side and back of our house – all different varieties – all white.

SMART PEOPLE with OPINIONS

What’s not to love about people that actually know what they are talking about and share their wisdom with the rest of us.

MY MOTHER’S LETTERS

I have a drawer full of cut out newspaper/magazine/web articles that my mother sends me … weekly … all good stuff I’m sure, but admittedly, I rarely read any of it. Still, it’s one of favorite things because every time I get another envelope marked “you have to read this” I can always picture her precisely cutting out the words, page by page, with a smile on her face because I know she love me and always wants to offer forth the best of the world my way.

CAT WOMAN

If you have to ask then you don’t understand.

STARBUCKS

Again, if you have to ask then you don’t understand.

SLIGHTLY-DIRTY KETEL ONE MARTINI

Times two on any given Friday night.

I’m one of the querky ones who loves tomatoes any way you slice them, as long as you mix them into something else…like salsa, spaghetti sauce or even tomato bisque, just never serve them to me raw. ha. Happy to meet you here. Look forward to reading more.:)

And now mom knows you don’t really read what she sends you. Whatcha gonna do if somewhere in that letter you didn’t read there is a negative billing option. Like, “if you don’t respond in the negative within a week you become betrothed to four headed troll who chew gum with their mouth open”. Huh, then what?
